Learn to cook with me! Healthy, easy-to-master recipes from my kitchen to yours. Why eat out when you can make delicious food at home? Lets bring back the era of dinner parties, cookouts, and home-cooked meals.
Behind the apron, I’m a graduate of the University of Minnesota Law School and am an attorney at a law firm focusing on banking law. I grew up with a mom that made dinner every night and a younger sister that rivaled a 1950s house wife. I lived on dry cereal. Even making pasta was too much for me to handle.
After getting married in October 2011, I decided it was finally time to learn to cook. This blog will try to focus on healthier meals [I have a powerful sweet tooth].
I have never considered myself a good cook, so this is documenting my effort to change that.
I’m into painting, red wine, tea, 4:14, french bulldogs, my family, naming things, guacamole, and piggies.
I’m not into diet coke, peas, and hipsters.

LIndsay – what is the difference between Balsamic Vinegar and Balsamic Vinaigrette?
Balsamic vinegar contains beneficial antioxidants, no fat, and very few calories. It is rather strong too so a little goes a long way. Conversely, balsamic vinaigrette is more of your “typical” salad dressing. It typically includes oil, sugar, and/or mustard to balsamic vinegar, along with seasonings like garlic, salt, and pepper. While it can be made in a way that makes it healthier than other salad dressings, it can’t compare to simply using the vinegar and oil.
This weekend I made the Fresh Mozzarella, Basil, Tomato Salad – I put too much balsamic vinegar in it. It wasn’t as good as the salad you made. Next time I will be more careful.
I just put a couple of drops when I make it for one and maybe 4-5 drops when I made a bigger batch.
